Ectocore is an algorithmic breakbeat-focused sample mangler for eurorack.
It streams audio straight from an SD card and can chop, slice and effect samples in real time. There are 16 different FX that are available and FX presets are curated through the Grimoire knob. There’s also an internal rungler/turing machine inspired looping random sequencer for quickly generating new slice patterns. It features clock input and output (with a clock divider/multiplier) and will pitch up or down samples to keep them in time.
Sample management is easy through 16 banks and a powerful GUI browser tool for chopping and analysing samples and changing settings.

user samples. Includes a robust factory library featuring samples
from Pete Cannon, Ben “DivKid” Wilson, Moe Shop, and others. - Internally looping random sequenced or CV-controlled sample
